If I know that there’s a problem with one of my services, I don’t want a heap dump of my whole application nor do I want to guess what class may be causing the issue. I want something that just tells me what broke.

Using code test coverage analysis we’ve got a new metric we can use to judge the quality of our code. As with any metric though, some discretion is required… I find that this sort of tool is mostly useful to catch dumb mistakes.
